It is more than relief for the mind when it can finally rest in silence.
Something else arises in this silence, something else bubbles up from the heart.
Sometimes it is very subtle, like a slight smile in the midst of this quiet. Other times, it is a surge of jubilation, an outpouring of love, scintillating warmth…even bliss.
And as this arises, the mind is spellbound and pulled deeper and deeper, enveloped in the awe inspiring contradiction of scintillating silence.
In meditation, our mind and heart…our being is drawn to this like a moth to light. It is our nature to seek it.
Like a feast for the heart and mind, even if only for a moment, this truly satisfies and dispels our usual restlessness.
